Top 10 Biggest Jerks in Americana Music

Some would imagine that the fan-friendly, honest Americana music scene would not be as likely to contain divas and d-bags as the more mainstream genres of music. However, thanks to critic and hipster love for the buzzworthy genre, things have changed of late. This groundswell has slowly created a context wherein all manner of unlikely aspirants are more apt to let their jerk flag fly. Here are some of the genre's most egregious offenders.

10. Brent Cobb

"Forgets" to invite cousin Dave to family functions

Band members only allowed to speak to him by text message

9. Rhiannon Giddens

Borrows band members' phones and logs out of everything

Once put a fan who accidentally called her 'Rihanna' in a triangle choke submission hold

8. Amanda Shires

Wouldn't speak to husband, Jason, for a month when he opposed the name "Taco Lucinda" for their daughter

Performed an entire show of Rob Thomas covers when one crowd was smaller than anticipated

7. Rob Baird

Always eats the middle cinnamon roll out of the pan first

Spends hours a day leaving 1 star iTunes reviews on other Americana artists

Will only autograph thongs

6. Shooter Jennings

Puffs, doesn't pass

Got a secret tip and sold all his Bitcoin to Marilyn Manson just before Bitcoin crashed

Ha only shooter jennings? Check out cody jinks ward davis and Courtney Patton. You won't be disappointed. And holly Williams is a Williams. As in hank Williams grand daughter. Ever heard of hank Williams?

Bless her heart, folks. She rockinrobyn77 must not get out much. Or she lets mainstream country radio control who she listens to. I think you'd change your mind if got a little taste of Ward Davis, Cody Jinks, Colter Wall, Sunny Sweeney, and the like.

Hey guys, we can only thank the good Lawd above that not everyone is as cool as us!! Get some culture people!! Ain’t heard of Holy Williams!! Brent Cobb?? What about his badass cousin Dave!?!? Fugetaboutit!!!!!
